I loved my time at Regen, Guiseppe is so knowledgeable and willing to share, and the other volunteers were amazing and so welcoming. There was a great balance between working and free time, and the work was super enjoyable and rewarding. I would definitely recommend this experience!

My time at the project was truly unforgettable. Giuseppe, the host, was very kind, and the volunteers were friendly, caring, and helpful. I learned more about agroforestry and the lifestyle of a farmer. Very interesting and I'm having so much fun while on the farm—some of the best times I've had. The volunteers made it even more memorable, creating memories I will always cherish. I want to thank Giuseppe sincerely for inviting me to be part of the project community.

My time at the project was great! I feel like I learned so much new information in the short time I was there. I learned about being more sustainable and what principles the place is built on. But more importantly, I learned so much from being around the other volunteer members about different views on life. Moving forward. I will take a lot of value from what I learned from this place!

This was a lovely experience in so many ways! The long-term volunteers at Regen were so welcoming, caring and knowledgeable, and I felt like home here. Giuseppe's project is interesting and versatile, there would be so much one could learn by doing, asking questions and immersing oneself in the life at the farm. It’s good to make sure you know your reasons to volunteer here. My reasons were to learn about permaculture and communal living, and this was great for those. With the tasks, meals, socialising and resting, days go by fast. I found all this fun and rewarding. Thank you!

This was my first Worldpackers experience and I couldn't have been more happy about it. Giuseppe is an amazing host that has created a phenomenal environment, physically and spiritually. Other volunteers, both short and long term, were quite literally some of the best people I have ever met.
Tasks and other jobs were easily manageable throughout the day, with enforced breaks in between them. Family style dinners and late night tea talks may have been my favorite. Highly recommended both positions !!

I've done some social media/website tasks and a bit of gardening. The ambient was very welcoming and relaxed, the volunteer community is really super friendly. I felt that when I wanted something regarding my work or other things it was always met with openness. I think it is a great opportunity to learn a lot about eco agriculture, especially when you remain there for a longer period. There is a lot of work but the hours are respected and there seems to be a lot of flexibility.

My time at the project was much more than a volunteering experience. It was a real lesson in community, sustainability, and conscious living. From the very first day I felt welcomed as part of something meaningful. We started our mornings with yoga at sunrise, which set the tone for the day with calmness and intention. Everyone had specific responsibilities and that created a strong sense of collaboration and purpose.

I spent almost 3 weeks at the project - most of the work we did during this time was harvesting grapes in vineyards which are separate from the agroforestry fields. There are challenges with ecologically conscious communal living in an old house with limited resources, especially when maintenance/cleaning of the house is mostly self-organized by volunteers and expected to be done almost entirely outside of the 6-hour per day working hours. I made some wonderful friends and appreciated the time with everyone including Giuseppe and Diego (who facilitated most of our daily work) - thank you the project!

I’m glad I met very nice volunteers there, but the ladies bedroom is UPSTAIRS and AFTER GOING THROUGH the guys bedroom, very uncomfortable. To go to the bathroom you have to get down a very narrow ladder. The food is controlled by the host. At the time I was there each person could eat at max 3 eggs. When we asked to buy peppers (3 uni), they said it was too expensive. Ppl had to beg for some food. Also the host would get into the kitchen and steal the volunteers food.

Dear Gabi, sorry for the misunderstanding, clarified last week with everyone. The peppers we disagreed on were for processed products we sell, and we don't mix our regenerative tomatoes with conventional food for clients. There was an egg miscalculation—we buy 180 eggs weekly. No one has ever gone hungry here, with plenty of organic food, partly regenerative. Food is bought for everyone, including staff, not from the volunteer budget, and costs 60% more than our allowance to keep it organic
